Any player can collect a bounty by killing a wanted player or NPC. The ship scanner can determine if the selected target is "Clean" or if there is a warrant for their destruction. Bounties outside of the current jurisdiction are not shown by the ship scanner so it is recommended that bounty hunters equip a [[Kill Warrant Scanner]] to scan for those extra bounties (bind it to a fire group, aim at the target and "shoot" until the scan is finished).

~~'''Bounty hunting''' is the art of collecting [[Credits|credits]] for killing other NPCs and players with a price on their heads. Those who are involved in this role are known as '''bounty hunters'''.~~

Bounty hunters will often loiter outside [[stations]] in order to scan other ships when they slow down to enter the docking area, but many bounty hunters are most active at RES (Resource Extraction Sites) or Nav Beacons since many wanted ships will appear at both locations. To claim a bounty a player only needs to find a target with an active bounty on them and then destroy (make sure to get the last hit) their ship. Claims can be redeemed in the Local Security Offices section of the Contacts menu at any station in a system where the target was wanted.

More often than not, a [[Kill Warrant Scanner]] is used by a bounty hunter to determine if the owner of a target ship has a bounty. Bounties for crimes committed in other jurisdictions can be uncovered by using the kill warrant scanner.

==Bounty Vouchers==

[[File:BountyVoucherMenu1.jpg|thumb|300px|Cashing in bounty vouchers]]

Bounty vouchers are issued when a commander destroys a ship that had a bounty on it, the commander is then awarded a bounty voucher. These vouchers must be cashed in at an appropriate contact to receive the reward.<ref>https://forums.frontier.co.uk/~~showpost~~.php?p=192910~~&postcount=1~~</ref>

Kills and associated bounty vouchers are recorded in the ship's log, so if your ship is destroyed before you get back to a station contact to present them for payment, then the vouchers will be lost along with the ship and you will not be able to cash them in. An exception to this is if the bounty voucher was awarded in the presence of a system authority vessel in which case they "radio" the kill confirmation back to their home station.

==Things to remember about bounty hunters==

* The bounty hunter's favourite ship is the [[Viper Mk III]]; fast enough to catch up with you and fast enough to escape should things not go according to plan. Usually outfitted with [[Railgun|railguns]] or [[Cannon|cannons]] for a quick and decisive outcome.

* Bounty hunters are not predominantly [[Pirates|pirates]], but may take on that role as opportunities arise. Any [[Stolen Goods|stolen goods]] gained while bounty hunting is always an added bonus.

* Bounty hunters are NOT [[Griefers|griefers]]!
